Submission

Seduced, stripped,
Commanded to submit,
Thrust wickedly,
In to a bottomless pit.
Bound, whipped,
Punished, adored,
Perspectives changed,
Of their own accord.
Confusion, hatred,
No lies told,
Saved from darkness,
From a hand to hold.
Loved, cherished,
With a soul of fire,
Eyes ablaze,
From heated desire.
Shackles, released,
No longer a need,
All those fears,
Have now been freed.

Thank you Chris. To be honest, I was a little unsure about submitting this one. I didn't know if it was a bit too dark at the start. So, thank you for the vote of confidence. It's greatly appreciated :)
